Paroles
[Verse 1]
Shards of glass in empty corners
Dust in the frame where your picture sat
Your fur on the sofa
A forgotten trace
Coffee ring ghost on the table mat
I never understood what the secret was
How you burned so bright in a quiet room
How you managed to be so alive
While I was breaking in two
[Chorus]
You were color in my grayscale day
Running circles through the hallway
Every heartbeat louder than my doubt
Now I’m talking to the walls again
Saying your name just to feel something
You were so alive
I’m still figuring out
[Verse 2]
Door cracked open like you’ll wander in
Keys by the bowl
Just in case
Blanket still holding the shape of you
I breathe it in
It’s all that stays
I never learned how to let things go
Just rearranged the same old pain
Your empty bowl on the kitchen floor
Little planets in the water stain
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
If there’s a place where the lost ones go
Run ahead
I’ll follow slow (oh oh)
If there’s a way I can meet you there
Leave me a sign in the silent air
[Chorus]
Shards of glass in empty corners
Dust in the frame where your picture sat
Your fur on the sofa
A forgotten trace
Coffee ring ghost on the table mat
I never understood what the secret was
How you burned so bright in a quiet room
How you managed to be so alive
While I was breaking in two
[Chorus]
You were color in my grayscale day
Running circles through the hallway
Every heartbeat louder than my doubt
Now I’m talking to the walls again
Saying your name just to feel something
You were so alive
I’m still figuring out
[Verse 2]
Door cracked open like you’ll wander in
Keys by the bowl
Just in case
Blanket still holding the shape of you
I breathe it in
It’s all that stays
I never learned how to let things go
Just rearranged the same old pain
Your empty bowl on the kitchen floor
Little planets in the water stain
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
If there’s a place where the lost ones go
Run ahead
I’ll follow slow (oh oh)
If there’s a way I can meet you there
Leave me a sign in the silent air
[Chorus]
Style de musique
Indie folk-leaning alt-pop, close-mic’d male vocals, soft fingerpicked guitar and brushed snare. Intimate verses with lots of space; chorus blooms with warm bass, airy pads, and a simple, singable top line. Subtle backing harmonies on hook phrases, tasteful reverb to keep it haunting but still present.
